I agree that the best definition for gender should be fuzzy and subjective. I think the biggest thing holding people back from abandoning rigid definitions is our rigid society that demands a nuclear family where women are baby factories and men are wage laborers. Because if that's what defines gender then it makes sense why people conflate gender with genitals and why they oppose trans people on a conceptual level.
